Interesting. Is this your practice? DO you consider yourself a Chan Buddhist?

if i was to pick 'ism' yes this would be mine

 

it is the most complete system. this is what bodhidarma taught and chan is his baby

 

bodhidarma is descendant of sakamuni. hui neng was last transmitter.

 

good luck

I've just watched the second video and it is something that has aroused my interest lately.

Does anyone have any experience with the Pure Land/Chan recitation method?

Thanks but I've read that book and most books on Chan and probably all there is on Pure Land.

I was basically wondering if anyone has had any interesting experiences from recitation of the Buddha's name.

It was a practice that I once tried years ago but it wasn't for me.

I have every respect for cultivators of each of these traditions and it is a valid path for lots of people.

I have my own Dao cultivation which I feel is right for me and my life situation. I'll leave Buddhism for those that have affinities with it.

Best wishes
